Custom printed fabrics for that next burst of inspiration

Fellow fabric friends, rejoice! We’re giving you access to some of Australia’s most renown artists and their captivating work… in fabric form. Think bright, bold designs adorning a range of high-quality, Oeko-Tex 100 certified material (that you get to pick!), using inks free from the nastiest chemicals.

We think it’s high time you ditched run-of-the-mill, generic and boring fabrics and embraced the rainbow. And who better to show us how then artists like Deb McNaughton and Danielle Monique, to name a few. Let’s show the world our true colours with funky custom printed fabrics (scroll on to ignite your creative spark).

Unique, good quality custom printed fabrics SHOULD be easy to find

Here’s the thing: we know you’ve got the passion and the eye to create magical things. So do our artists – in fact, by grabbing their art printed on fabric, you’re making sure they get paid for their genius. In our hearts, we know this is a win-win: think of it like one big collaboration between you, some kick-ass Aussie artists and us, your new BFFs (Bold Fabric Friends). 

Our journey began all because of one artist: creative powerhouse, Deb McNaughton. Once upon a time, we wanted access to more of Deb’s prints (and other artists' designs) but they weren’t available on pre-order anywhere else. So what do we do? Naturally, we started Hello Friend Fabrics!
